Good Words, but...



I enjoyed this Football Gameplan.com interview with Head Coach Al Bagnoli released yesterday. Bagnoli said all the right things, including the very gratifying declaration, (that he's made before), that the Columbia football program was underachieving for so long in the past. I also think he made a great succinct argument for why Columbia is a superior choice for student athletes who want to have the best career opportunities.

But I do long for the day when the interviews with Bagnoli focus not just on our overall program and history, but on individual current players and games won. Hopefully that day will come soon.

Where's VOY?

The Ivy League sports chat board that served as a regular home for many of us for about 12 years has been offline for more than a week now and it looks like it could be the end. I hope it comes back to life soon, but all fans of all Ivy teams are always welcome to debate in the comments sections of my posts and I can also launch an "Ivy Open Thread" post at the beginning of each week so people don't have to search through all my Columbia posts to find a general conversation.

  6. I try pinging www.voy.com and it gives me a request timed out for 69.26.170.8 . Perhaps the www.voy.com moved to a different address and the dns servers have not been updated. If you can get to www.voy.com can you try to ping it and tell me what address it is giving you.
